Description
Singer/songwriter and guitarist Raul MidÃ³n is on an undeniable roll. After GRAMMYÂ® Award nominations for his two previous Artistry Music/Mack Avenue Music Group releases - Bad Ass & Blind and If You Really Want, each for Best Jazz Vocal Album - he returns with his 11th studio album and fourth for the label: The Mirror, to be released March 13, 2020. The Mirror finds MidÃ³n breaking new ground for himself, including two entrancing solo spoken-word pieces ("If I Could See" and "One Day Without War").

The album also features studio meetings with such veteran jazz colorists as vibraphonist Joe Locke ("A Certain CafÃ©"), as well as a songwriting collaboration with top pianist Gerald Clayton, "Deep Dry Ocean." Another highlight is the road-weary jazz ballad "Cold Cuts and Coffee," while title track "The Mirror" beguiles with its easy tropical groove, lyrical sophistication and MidÃ³n's flowing electric guitar. As National Public Radio set the stage before his captivating edition of its "Tiny Desk Concert" broadcast: "Raul MidÃ³n lives in a world of sound. Blind since birth, MidÃ³n's interpretation of his surroundings is borderless. He sings with the passion of the best classic soul singers, and his instrumental chops stand alongside the most accomplished jazz musicians."
